Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Tubes add distortion to the audio signal... say it isn't true !!!
I remember reading his Twitter thread live, and lots of people were warning him off using a non-air gapped, repurposed power trafo for the output. Not sure how this circuit is expected to give tube amplification a fair shake given that there was zero optimization done in terms of quiescent current, anode load, or parts selection. Feels like more confirmation bias (canβt argue about the efficiency, though), but a fun exercise nonetheless.
